Why Do I Have Shortness Of Breath And Chest Pain After Getting A Heart Catheterization?

I had a heart catherization, and they found nothing. I still am having shortness of breath, chest pain, heaviness in my chest, ringing in my ears, flash headaches. I am on a Beta Blocker and Blood Pressure medicine. I am 43 and do have family history of heart diase on both sides of the family.
